Based on the above description of the media information playing system and the electronic device according to the embodiments of the present invention, the following describes a media information playing method provided by the embodiments of the present invention. Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for playing media information according to an embodiment of the present invention; in some embodiments, the method for playing media information may be implemented by a server or a terminal alone or cooperatively, and the method for playing media information provided in the embodiments of the present invention includes:

Step 301: the terminal presents a media information stream interface containing at least two media information, and plays the first media information through a first play window in the media information stream interface.

In some embodiments, the terminal is provided with a media information playing client, such as a video playing client when the media information is video information, an information type client when the media information is information type information, an instant messaging client capable of playing the media information, and the like. In practical implementation, when the terminal runs the media information playing client based on the running instruction triggered by the user, the media information playing client acquires at least two pieces of media information from the server, presents a media information stream interface containing at least two pieces of media information, and plays a first piece of media information in the acquired media information through a first playing window in the media information stream interface.

The acquisition of media information is described. In practical implementation, the media information playing client sends a media information obtaining request to a server (such as a background server of the media information playing client), and the server selects adaptive media information from the media information base and returns the adaptive media information to the media information playing client, so that the media information playing client plays the obtained media information through a media information stream interface. In some embodiments, the media information obtaining request carries identification information (such as a login account) of a user logged in to the media information playing client, the server obtains object features of the user based on the identification information of the user, and then screens media information adapted to the user (i.e. interested by the user) from the media information base based on the object features, and returns the obtained media information to the media information playing client.

The number of media information returned by the server can be determined according to the number of media information which can be presented by the media information flow interface between two page refreshing requests aiming at one media information acquisition request of the terminal, and in practical application, the server returns the terminal as a media information set, wherein the number of media information in the media information set is not less than the number of media information which can be presented by the media information flow interface; for example, if the number of media information that can be presented by the media information streaming interface is three, the number of media information in the media information collection is three or more.

The playing of the first media information in the first playing window in the media information stream interface is explained. In some embodiments, the playing of the first media information may be implemented based on a user trigger, for example, after the media information playing client obtains the media information set including the first media information sent by the server, the obtained media information is presented in the media information flow interface, and when a playing instruction for the first media information triggered by the user is received, the first media information is played; in other embodiments, the playing of the first media information may also be automatically implemented, for example, when at least two media information including the first media information are presented in the media information stream interface, the terminal detects that the first media information meets an automatic playing condition, and automatically plays the first media information through the first playing window; the automatic playing condition can be set according to actual needs, for example, when the first media information is the first media information returned by the server based on the request sequence, the first media information is determined to meet the automatic playing condition; for another example, the media information in the media information stream interface is presented in the form of media information cards, and when the media information card corresponding to the first media information is the first completely displayed media information card in the media information stream interface, it is determined that the first media information meets the automatic playing condition.

Here, in practical applications, the media information may be video information (e.g., short video information, long video information), audio information, animation information, live broadcast, etc. A media information set can be presented in the media information flow interface, and the media information is the minimum unit of the media information set; the media information set comprises one or more media information, and can also comprise one or more media information groups, wherein one media information group comprises at least two media information. The media information stream interface may play the media information in the media information collection through a play window.

Describing the playing state of the media information in the media information stream interface, the playing in the embodiment of the invention comprises two states: the media information is in a playing state in playing and a playing pause state when the media information pauses playing; that is, the first media information played in the media information stream interface may be media information in a playing state or media information in a pause playing state.

Step 302: and when the first media information is played, determining a position area of the first playing window in the media information stream interface.

Here, a location area where the first play window is located in the media information stream interface will be described. In some embodiments, the media information stream interface is divided into two location areas when the media information stream interface presents two media information. The first media information is played in a first playing window of the media information stream interface, and the location area where the first playing window is located is usually the top area of the media information stream interface. In other embodiments, since the first location area of the media information stream interface may be fixed, such as an advertising area for advertising, etc., the first play window is in the bottom location area of the media information stream interface, and there is one play window in the media information stream interface.

Step 303: and when the position area of the first playing window in the media information flow interface is a first position area, creating a second playing window in a second position area in the media information flow interface.

Here, the creation of the second play window in the second location area in the media information stream interface will be described. In some embodiments, the media information stream interface divides two location areas. The first playing window is in a first position area of the media information flow interface, and the first media information is played in the first playing window of the first position area. When the first media information is played, a second play window is created in the second location area.

Fig. 4A-4B are schematic diagrams of a target presentation mode according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 4A, two media information are presented in a media information stream interface, where a first media information is played through a first playing window in a first location area 41 in the media information stream interface. When the first media information is played, a second play window is created in the first location area 42 of the media information stream interface.

Step 304: and acquiring second media information positioned in the second position area, and determining a display mode of the second media information.

Here, the second media information will be described. In some embodiments, when the media information stream interface presents two or more media information, the second media information may be adjacent media information of the first media information that has been presented in the media information stream interface and that is presented in sequence after the first media information; in other embodiments, when one or more media information is presented in the media information stream interface, the second media information is adjacent media information to the first media information that is not currently presented in the media information stream interface, but is presented in sequence after the first media information.

The determination of the presentation mode of the media information is explained. In some embodiments, the terminal may determine a display mode of the media information based on the display mode identifier of the media information, and in particular, the terminal acquires a display mode identifier corresponding to the second media information; and when the display mode identification represents that the display mode of the second media information is a single-column display mode, determining that the display mode of the second media information is a target display mode. The display mode of the media information comprises a single-column display mode and a multi-column display mode. The target display mode is a display mode which needs to be met when the media information is automatically played in the media information flow interface, namely, at least two pieces of media information which are presented in the media information flow interface, and the media information which is presented in the single-column display mode meets the requirement of the target display mode when the media information is automatically played.

For example, referring to fig. 4A, in the terminal media information stream interface, according to the single-column display mode identifier corresponding to the media information 1, it is determined that the display mode of the media information 1 in the current media information stream interface is the target display mode; and determining the display mode of the media information 2 in the current media information stream interface as a target display mode according to the single-column display mode identifier corresponding to the media information 2.

Referring to fig. 4B, in the terminal media information flow interface, according to the single-column display mode identifier corresponding to the media information 3, it is determined that the display mode of the media information 3 in the current media information flow interface is the target display mode; the media information 4 and the media information 5 form a media information group, wherein the display mode identification of the media information characterizes that the display modes of the media information 4 and the media information 5 are multi-column display modes, and the display modes of the media information 4 and the media information 5 in the current media information flow interface are determined not to be target display modes.

Step 1302: detecting whether the life cycle breaks the mute logic, and executing step 1303 when the mute logic is broken; when the mute logic is not broken, step 1304 is performed.

Here, the present life cycle refers to the present time of starting the media information playing client, and the next time of restarting the media information playing client is the new life cycle.

In the media information flow interface, when automatically playing media information, the terminal detects whether the mute logic is broken or not in the whole life cycle of the automatic playing (the process of automatically playing the media information once). The conditions for breaking mute logic include clicking on an icon that displays volume, turning a system button to turn over volume (including a physical key of the handset), and playing video information in the underlying page.

Based on the above operations, it is considered that the play sound state is changed from mute play to voiced play.

Step 1303: the mute control function is not presented.

Here, the media information is automatically played in sound following the system volume.

Step 1304: and displaying the mute control function item.

Here, the media information is mute and automatically played.

Step 1305: and receiving operations such as clicking the mute control function item/turning up the volume by using a system button, wherein the display style of the mute control function item is changed, then the mute control function item disappears, and the life cycle does not appear any more.

In practical applications, referring to fig. 9A and 9B specifically, after a period of mute playing of media information, a user clicks a mute button, a system button turns over operations of breaking mute logic conditions such as volume (including a physical key of a mobile phone), and adjusts a playing sound state of the media information from mute playing to voiced playing, and in this process, mute icon 11 disappears, and the life cycle is no longer displayed.

Here, after the mute play function disappears, the media information follows the system volume to play (i.e., step 1303).
